Notes
recording notes:
// tape flip
# Sound is rough for first few minutes, took them a while to dial the PA in.
Overall Sound quality not as good on set 1, surely due to distance from PA;
does seem to get "better" in the middle of Minglewood.
& paused between songs
* very long stop between Woman and He's Gone (must have been equipment problems)
% First time played (h/t dead.net)
+ extra reverb in Bob's vocals adds odd echoness to Sugar Magnolia

I knew that someone had to have a better quality then what has previously been here for all these years. To me the other 2 versions are muddy and distant. This captures this night better then the other 2. Just check out Phil on bertha he throws out the booming bash towards the end . Plus can hear cymbals on this one.
Am sure those of us who were on this tour have also wanted a better version .
The security at this show was rather tough on us they were thrown out head's for dancing in my section of the floor. Only a short way into this but I like it. 4 stars because I hope others check it out asap
